Fresenius University of Applied Sciences evolved from the Fresenius Chemical Laboratory, founded in 1848 by Carl Remigius Fresenius, and has a long tradition of private-sector education in Germany. It is thus the oldest educational institution of its kind in the field of chemistry. 


As a university, it is important to us to maintain close ties with the region’s business partners and to promote the transfer of knowledge from academia to practice. Our graduates are potential professionals, and at the same time, we benefit from joint projects and/or internships with the business community as part of the degree program.
